  1. I think I have fixed the problem. For anyone else that is experiencing this issue all I did was go into settings - apps - Movies and TV - advanced options and I turned off Background apps
  2. A few months ago the Windows Movie and TV application on my Dell XPS 9570 started to glitch out whenever I would open a video file with it. Recently I got tired of the issue and reinstalled windows 10 but the application still glitches even after a fresh install of windows. VID_20200121_011552872.mp4
  3. That was kind of my plan. After I decrypt the files (if I even can find a solution that works) I'm going to fully erase the drives for both my PC and Mac then reinstall the OS and all my applications. I'm just wondering if doing that would completely get rid of the virus or is there anything else I would need to do. My main concern is that if there is still a trace of the virus somehow it may spread to other computers on my network or hack my accounts.
  4. I have to use my parents card and pay them back since mine is expired but I will give that a try tonight
  5. I've tried to get the student version but I don't think I'm eligible and as of now I'm not planning on going to college.
  6. Sorry I accidentally posted that before I was done typing basically I opened the patch file and a bunch of random crap started downloading to my PC but my files were ok on that before I erased the drive. my external drives seem like the only drives infected with it and have hundreds of copies of the note
  7. Alright sounds good and just to clarify I think the external drives we're the only ones infected with Gandcrab because originally what happened was I opened rhe and those drives have a couple hundred copies of the note each.
  8. Yup I'm in high school and creative cloud is a good chunk of money for me but I'm going to find a way to pay for it and whenever I need to pirate software in the future I'm going to use a VM or an old machine without any drives plugged in.
  9. Last week I was trying to download a patcher to pirate the new 2019 versions of creative cloud since the zerocode one was taken down. I ended up getting a virus and erased the hard drive on my PC and reinstalled windows right away. I forgot I had a couple external drives plugged in. The next day I plugged one of them into my Mac to go do some photo editing and I checked finder and half the files on there were infected with Gandcrab version 5.0.4. I got home and the 4 terabyte external drive I had plugged in when I got the virus and it was partially infected as well. I'm planning to try the Gandcrab decrypter from bit defender when that comes out. My questions are is there anything else I can try that may work to decrypt my files and is it even possible since I erased the drive on my PC. Also if I erased the drives on my PC and Mac again after I hopefully get the files decrypted would those computers be completely virus free and would the external drives be safe to use if I just decrypted them.
  10. I would like to buy one but I can't really afford to spend more than 950 or so and even that is a bit more than my parents probably want me to spend.
  11. I have a desktop as well which I am planning to upgrade in the next 6 months this is just for editing on the road and at school and such
  12. I am currently using a 2011 Macbook pro for video editing on the go but since I am slowly switching to shooting in 4K I figured I should upgrade. I am looking at the dell xps 15 9500 with 16 gigs of ram, i7 6th gen and a 960m for decent specs and good battery life and its under a thousand used. I'm just wondering how it performs editing 4k video in premiere and after effects in 2018.
  13. Thanks Samcool, I kind of forgot about that with cuda but I meant just gpu acceleration in general. I am planning to pick up a 960 I just really need to make sure it works with cuda acceleration and is a decent budget card for editing since I do a lot more editing than gaming. I forgot to add this in my initial post but The Z400 has a proprietary 475 watt psu so the old way to upgrade would be rigging some of the pins for the mobo connector. I also would like to have a card with at least 2 gigs of vram and over a 1000 cuda cores and 4 display inputs.
  14. I am upgrading an old HP Z400 workstation I bought for around 20 bucks and I'm wondering if either a gtx 660 or a 960 support cuda acceleration in the newest version of premiere pro. If not what would be some other decent used cards that do that I can pick up on eBay for under a 150 dollars and only take a single 6 pin power connector. I would prefer it to be an nvidia card.
